Hey Bumfuzzlers! In contract to last week’s update – which I couldn’t have even been bothered to post about – this week’s update has a lot to talk about – specifically in the area of performance. At the same time, there are some nice updates to arrows, weather, and key locks which really help out people jumping on after a wipe.

Arrow Upgrades

We’ve got fire arrows! And bone arrows! It appears they’re both slower and more accurate, but fire arrows will give some splash damage within a radius. Developers say that the fire arrows are far from completed and they want to eventually have players light the arrows with a torch or camp fire. Nice idea!

Weather Updates

Apparently there were fiddling with the fog this update. I know a few of you Bumfuzzlers sometimes complained about the density of the fog. Well, now it appears fog won’t get all THAT thick and on the clearer days it will be far clearer. They’ve made it so fog and wind are varied every 18 hours.

Admire Updates

Now when you admire certain items you will get some nicer ganders. I love this feature, especially with the Skin Perks we run. Some of these skins are really awesome to look at. They’ve updated the admire animations for the Pickaxe, Bandage, Bota bag, Water bottle, Big cleaver, Crossbow, Hammer, Mace, Salvaged axe, Salvaged Icepick, Torch and Longsword!

View model Improvements

You can also see some improvements to the view models. They are said to look ‘snappier’ with new additions to smoke coming out of various areas. Most of the updates of course are related to the weapons.

Future Updates

It appears that two updates worth mentioning are coming in the near future. Updated Pine Trees and Underwear! Yes, you get to run through the woods in your undies as the realistic pine needs tickle your Bum-fuzzler 🙂 The detail on the trees are really really nice. I’m looking forward to it. Check out the pics below.

Below is a complete list of updates. As always I’ve highlighted the items I like most, but surely there are other important touches this time around. Enjoy!
